Congress
is pushing a law that would abandon the Internet's First Amendment
-- a principle called Network Neutrality that prevents companies
like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast
from deciding which Web sites work best for you -- based on what
site pays them the most. If the public doesn't speak up now, our
elected officials will cave to a multi-million dollar lobbying
campaign.
In 1986, a freak break dancing accident put Justin Schumacher in a coma. Now,
20 years later, he (Jamie Kennedy) is waking up to a new world and discovering
that the more things change, the more he's stayed the same. With the girl of
his dreams (Maria Menounos) engaged to marry his grade-school nemesis (Michael
Rosenbaum), and his parents drowning in the debt of his medical costs, Justin
must rally his former squad, bust a move, and win back the girl of his dreams. — More here
1. SYNOPSIS
He may have worn hi-tops and parachute pants instead of a top hat
and tails, but 12-year old Justin “Rocket Shoe” Schumaker
and his killer moves could dance his way into just about any
girl’s heart.
2. A BLAST FROM THE PAST
Ah! The 1980s! A decade where big hair and bigger shoulder pads
were . . . well, big. Fabio, Charlie’s Angels and CHiPS,
chiseled action heroes and talking cars, it all wasn’t
just mindless kitsch to multi-faceted actor, comedian, producer
and rapper Jamie Kennedy – it was an era he remembers with
a great deal of fondness.
3.
OLD SKOOL CAMEOS & A KICKIN’-ASS
CAST
For director Harvey Glazer, working with a mix of young actors
and familiar faces from the’80s offered some unique opportunities
for comic inspiration.
4. THE LOOK, THE FEEL, THE FUN
The ’80s are an era that a lot of people are familiar with
whether they lived through them or are reliving them 24/7 all over
the world on syndicated television.
5.
BUSTIN’ ALL THE RIGHT MOVES
Given the film’s title, the dance moves in Kickin’ It
Old Skool are central to the movie’s theme. For Director
Harvey Glazer, those break dance routines were a huge part of the
fun for everyone on the set, and he feels it will be for audiences
as well.
